imma noob to the honda scene and wanna know the difference dx/ex/lx/si and so on.

si is the sporty looking one. all the others are pretty much the same

its all about 'luxory' some have power windows, some dont ect.

Here it is in order.CX = The lightest of the Honda Civic's. Usually it has a 1.3L or 1.5L engine to get the best MPG. It has manual locks and windows. Most came with no power steering and sometimes no A/C or radio.DX = The 2nd basic version of the Honda's. In the older models it had manual locks and windows, but in the newer models there being offered with power locks and windows. These came with radio and A/C for the United States but some came without A/C in Canada. Some hatchback models didn't have power steering but the engine was slightly upgraded engine compared to the CX.LX = The LX is the luxery version. Usually it offers a upgraded radio. It comes with power windows and locks. Most also have cruise control.EX = This version is basically the same as the LX except it provides a few extra options. Most have a sunroof/moonroof. This also comes with alloy rims and a upgraded radio/stereo with usually a 6 disc changer and preminum speakers. It also comes with leather seats if you get the EX-L version (L=Leater).Si = The Sport Injected vesion of the Honda Civic. These came with a upgraded engine usually a DOHC but the older models had the D16Z6 or D16A6 SOHC engine. In Japan they came with the DOHC B16A outputting 160 HP. The U.S version didn't recieve the B16A2 until the 1999-2000 Honda Civic Si came out. The Honda Civic Si was offered in manual transmission only. Between the years of 1989-2000 they came with a 5 speed and 2002+ they came with a 6 speed transmission. So to sum it all up the Si is basically an EX with an upgraded engine and suspension.
